Something so simple yet so beautiful

Woke up this morning, had a cup of coffee and took a few pictures of my 111G.. how could something so simple look so glorious and beautiful at the same time?

Forget all the new and hard to get pieces.. sometimes beauty is found in the most basic and simple models... no frill.. just beauty..





















Have a great week ahead everyone and please excuse my 1960's retro pajama..

Best,

Fred

Sometimes less is more. And I love the sausage dial on the 111.

Thank you Gents!

This strap is an old simona vintage tan that aged for about 5 years.. over time.. the patina turns out very nicely!

Best,

Fred
